Not sure if I can find a replacement for the battery so I salvaged the ram sticks and the hard-drive and placed them elsewhere. Then retired it in some cupboard.
most definitely motherboard issue
I have the same thing on my current (8 year old) laptop
laptops have a life expectancy of 3-5 years btw
that's why I'll be buying a desktop computer after my laptop is done for good
